That's really no contest for Linux users.  ATI's drivers have a long
history of sucking in one way or another.  If you have a choice, nVidia
is a better bet.

Having said that though, ATI's problems are generally a lot more subtle
than this.  Anything that would stop the PLIB font library from drawing
text correctly would be a pretty major problem for almost anything.
FNT doesn't use any clever OpenGL trickery at all.  It's all just a
bunch of glBegin/glTexCoord/glVertex/glEnd blocks.
